Soichiro Honda ( Honda Sōichirō, November 17, 1906–August 5, 1992) was the founder of the Honda Motors company and was born in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, Japan.

Honda spent his early childhood helping his father, Gihei, a blacksmith, with his bicycle repair business. At the time his mother, Mika, was a weaver. At 15, without any formal education, Honda arrived in Tokyo to look for work. He obtained an apprenticeship at a garage in 1922, and after some vacillation over his employment, he stayed for six years, working as a car mechanic before returning home to start his own auto repair business in 1928 at the age of 22.

In 1948 Honda began producing motorcycles as president of the Honda Motor Company. Honda turned the company into a billion-dollar multinational that produced the best-selling motorcycles in the world. Honda's excellent engineering and clever marketing resulted in Honda motorcycles out-selling Triumph and Harley-Davidson in their respective home markets. In 1959 Honda Motorcycles opened its first dealership in the United States.

> Coming Soon To Everything RC Cars

As you know, we're very busy working on the website. There will be a bunch of new updates coming up in the next two weeks. We are also going to be launching something 'secret' (for now) coming up by the end of the month / early May. You won't be disappointed!

I've been getting e-mails that say that all our RC videos are not showing on the page anymore. At first, I had this same issue, but after rebooting my computer, all the videos are there again.

On a side note from RC cars, supposedly the 'code' that is most commonly used to embed videos has been copywrited by microsoft off some other company. Now, everyone is going to have to update the way they put videos on their site sometime soon. At first I thought that's what happened to the videos on our site, but apparently it's all good for the time being. Companies, always fighting over something - eventually we'll all be one big 'global corp', and they will make the best RC cars around! ha ha. Anyway, here's an article about the whole video thing if you're interested in this silly legal battle.

So to answer your questions, please reboot, the videos will be there :)
